The Canon PowerShot SX1 IS Digital Camera is one such camera that aims to do it all and fulfils the photographer's intent with a bevy of strong features. Utilising a Canon 20x wide-angle (28mm) optical zoom lens, the SX1 IS presents to you the option to shoot from a wide range of distances from telephoto shots to a space-grabbing yet up close perspective from the wide-angle. Adding to this lens is Canon’s Ultrasonic Motor (USM) and Voice Coil Motor (VCM) technology which makes possible near-silent operation and the speed for sports or wildlife subjects. Offering the power of a 10 megapixels CMOS sensor, it presents all the necessary detail for poster-sized prints or creative cropping in post processing. The SX1 IS can also shoot full-resolution JPEGs at speeds of up to 4fps, making it a powerful tool for capturing fast motion.
